My one main problem is the post op bra is aweful. A better bra or a recommendation upon leaving Huntsman after surgery would have been much appreciated. Ibhad to resarch the right brayself and fonally found an amazing compression bra at carols mastectomy shop. The one issued was terribly uncomfortable and left marks on my implants. A mentor or liason post op would be helpful too. There are so many questions after and we feel so lost and frantic. Joanna is wonderful but I feel strongly about better post op care grom Huntsman.

Joanna Manum was very thorough and to the point - I felt that she explained everything and was happy to answer my questions. Her confidence assured me that my recovery is going very well.

I love the care Dr. Agerwal's office has given after my reconstruction surgery! They have been so good to answer my questions, follow up with a phone call or two and help me through my recovery.

Joanna is wonderful. She's knowledgable and caring at the same time. She even called me at home to be sure I was doing well. I have complete confidence in her abilities. Lucky to have her on my team of medical providers.
